A thought and sound experiment. Initially a blueprint for a shelved audio drama, the piece explores how the sound field could be used to add and take away colour from a scene. The piece consists of a short rambling voice note to the writer by the sound designer, complete with diagetic music and sound, that has then been filtered to add to the emotion of the scene. This is the box.

An Asshole Walks Into a Group Meditation

Gabriel Berezin (US 2025)
24 min
Ever been to a group meditation? How did you feel - third eye open with a blissful permagrin? Or did you feel awkward and self conscious?
Tune into the psychedelic talk show that measures gullibility and skepticism using a powerful new scale. This trust spectrum is defined by Larry David, Woody Harrelson, Betty White, Bill Murray and cats (not the musical).
Gabriel Berezin and his co-host (his Inner Voice) discuss the neurological and psychological mental phenomena activated during a Brooklyn, NY meditation retreat.
For example, find out what a Burger King Whopper has to do with our experience of time, and why getting picked last on the dodgeball court explains our cultural divide.
This is Part 1 of a 3-part series.
Written, produced and voiced by Gabriel Berezin
Original music by Santiago Arias-Rozo.
Marsification: A Tale of Planetary Grief
Lily Sloane (US 2024)

Today we are being increasingly bombarded by the idea that humanity can and should expand to Mars. Coined in 2020 by the art collective Bureau of Linguistical Reality, the neologism Marsification critiques the idea that we can reset civilization by escaping to “Planet B”.
Marsification: A tale of planetary grief is a concept album audio artwork that unsettles seductive astro-colonial fantasies of leaving a damaged Earth for an uninhabited Mars. These 16 vignettes are designed for individual experiences and community dialogues as we process this interplanetary moment in all of its dissonance. Marsification:
A tale of planetary grief weaves together textured soundscapes, spoken dialogue, satire, hyper pop, whimsy, humor and heartache, non-fiction and science fiction, science and poetry, fantasy and history, with travels into inner and outer space. How can we examine assumptions about the future? And how do we listen properly to the ghosts that haunt the present?
Written and created by Lily Sloane and Zara Zimbardo
Narration and voice acting by Lily Sloane, Zara Zimbardo, and Chelsea Kigano
